Detonating Arrow

• Fixed a bug where Suckerpunch Arrow node did not provide any area increase.
• Fixed a bug where Weak Spot gave increased crit multi rather than added crit multi.
• Weak Spot grants 6% added crit multi (from 10% stated).
• Gift of the Ice grants 80% freeze rate multi (from 60%).

Puncture

• While using a Bow, Puncture now deals 5% less damage for each enemy it pierces (up to 20% less damage). The first enemy hit still takes full damage, and this effect is multiplicative with skill tree nodes which impact hit damage.

Sorry about that! Could you please contact support so we can look into this? We prefer not to discuss account or purchase related issues in public in case there’s any sensitive information involved.

Thanks!

Actually, I just found the bug, it’s not working for throwing either. Fixed for next patch.

I’m checking the back end and it is set up to work with bow attacks already.

This update is currently available on Steam and will be released to Standalone within an hour or two. EDIT: 0.8c is now available on Standalone.

If you opted-in to testing Beta 0.8b, you will need to switch back to the default version of the game to receive this update.

Right click on Last Epoch in your Steam library, then navigate to Properties -> Betas and select “default” from the dropdown.
